Chapter 853 Care
Chapter 853 Care
Shen Shuyi's eyes were cold: "I'm not sure. It depends on how long I'll be gone."
If Xiao Tingshan has always regarded her as an opponent, and there is no prince who can fight her at the moment, he is very likely to seize this opportunity and give it a try.
If she were gone for three or two months, perhaps Xiao Tingshan wouldn't.
But if the war in Liang Province is not settled and Xie Jingchi is in great danger, she might stay there for a year or two.
If this is true, the situation in Beijing is uncertain.
"What if... Xiao Tingshan never rebels, will we just keep on guarding against him like this?" Zhao Baokun frowned, seeming a little annoyed.
Just imagine how difficult it would be to live in constant fear like this.
Shen Shuyi looked at him with a smile: "You have always been smart. If he doesn't rebel, you can lend him a helping hand."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Baokun asked subconsciously. It's not that he has no brains, but when he was with Shen Shuyi, he was used to not using his brain.
After all, what he thinks about is always closer to his cousin.
Shen Shuyi analyzed softly: "Looking through the history books, there are only a few situations in which people want to overthrow the emperor and take the throne themselves. One is a truly ambitious rebel who happens to have the ability to do so. Of course, this also includes many royal relatives. The second is when the emperor is cruel and the people are living in misery, so they rise up and instigate the dynasty to split and be swallowed up by others. The third is mostly the desires of the previous dynasty, the parties of the old ministers, or foreign invasions."
Zhao Xueqing said softly: "Xiao Tingshan is a 'rebel' who has ambitions but lacks the ability. However, he has the noble status of a prince."
"Yes, Xiao Heyu was the opposite before because the Lu family knew that he held great power and was more powerful than the emperor, and sooner or later the emperor would be afraid of him, so they were always on guard. But Xiao Tingshan was an ambitious, unlucky, and dying man with talent but no chance of success."
Zhao Baokun didn't give up this time. Instead, he followed what Shen Shuyi said and thought seriously: "So, cousin, if he doesn't rebel, then we should lend him a helping hand first?"
Shen Shuyi laughed in appreciation: "Yes, if you want to destroy it, you must first make it expand."
Once they have laid out their plans and dug their traps, they can lend a helping hand to Xiao Tingshan and give him the opportunity and ability to rebel.
By then, under the pressure of his broken body, he is likely to give it a try.
After all, he's going to die anyway, so why not give it a try?
Zhao Baokun nodded: "I understand, cousin, what you mean is, after you leave Beijing, let us pretend that he has forced us into a desperate situation, let him recruit court officials and deceive His Majesty, watch him act and deploy secretly, and keep everything under control."
"Yes, I will leave a letter for my brother. If you have any questions or don't know what to do, just find him." Shen Shuyi nodded.
"But what if he doesn't rebel? If he doesn't rebel, won't we just watch his power grow?" Zhao Baokun frowned.
Jiu Chou couldn't help but say, "You forgot, at this rate, he won't live long."
"But didn't he create a mother-and-child Gu?" Zhao Baokun frowned.
"But he was hit by the palm of the Sixth Elder of the Li Clan before, and was thrown out. You also saw his condition in the hall today. Even with the nourishment of the mother Gu, he can't hold on for too long."
Shen Shuyi's eyes were cold. Even if she gave him enough time, how long could he extend her life?
In addition to what Li Ye had said before, she had also asked Mr. Lian Cheng.
If he continues like this, he won't be able to survive for long. Even if he tries desperately to stay alive, he can only survive three to five years.
"By the way, cousin, this is the badge you wanted." Zhao Xueqing handed the badge Shen Shuyi wanted to her.
With this badge, the business under Zhao Dehai's name and Shen Shuyi's own business will give her the greatest help along the way.
After Shen Shuyi took it, he thanked her earnestly: "Thank you, little uncle."
Shen Shuyi gave detailed instructions, and when the group left, Shen Shuyi looked at Jiuchou and said, "If I leave Beijing, Xiao Tingshan will definitely not miss this opportunity, and he will definitely send someone to kill me."
Jiu Chou was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's just right that he's here! I've disliked him for a long time!"
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "Go back and make some preparations to see where he is most likely to attack. We can ambush him in the first wave and then fight him later on."
"Yes."
"It's a long journey, we need to reduce casualties, you should pick some people who are familiar with Liangzhou to accompany you, we can outsmart them, never fight head-on."
"understand!"
"Go ask Mo Yu how many mechanical crossbows we can gather before we set off tomorrow morning. Let our people take them to Liangzhou this time. Once the others are made, send them to Yancheng as soon as possible."
Otherwise, as time went on, she was afraid that everything would be under Xiao Tingshan's control and it would be difficult for her to take any action.
"Yes."
After Jiuchou left, Shen Shuyi continued to write letters to Shen Shuhan. He only felt relieved when he confirmed that there were no mistakes.
Feeling depressed, Shen Shuyi walked into the yard and looked at the bright moon hanging in the night sky, feeling dazed.
Xie Jingchi, are you okay?
At this moment, Qin Xin hurried in from outside: "Madam, thank you for the letter!"
Shen Shuyi opened it immediately and read through it quickly with a serious expression.
As expected, because the waters in Liangzhou were poisoned, many soldiers became sick and lost their fighting power. In addition, because the waters were poisonous, even their daily meals became a problem.
In this way, even if there is sufficient food and grass, the soldiers of Daqian will still be troubled by the water source, and the food they can eat will definitely be much less.
At this time, Yuan Xia got the news and took the opportunity to attack the city continuously. The soldiers were exhausted and suffered heavy casualties.
Xie Jingchi was injured in this siege. He only mentioned a few words. It seemed that when the enemy attacked, he also offered his advice and joined in the fun. He was shot by a sharp arrow and was unconscious for a day.
But as soon as he woke up, he wrote to her.
Shen Shuyi looked at the last two lines of words, feeling dazed.
He asked her if she missed him, if she would be sad if he died, and if she would remarry?
All he said was how miserable he was, how no one cared about him, how no one pitied him, and how he was in agony.
Shen Shuyi put away the letter and sat in the yard in the wind for a long time. When she heard that he was fine, her clenched heart slowly calmed down.
She was a little distracted.
Does she care about him that much?
Even if I say I don't care, thinking about how busy I was that night, I felt indescribably abnormal and impulsive.
If he died... would she be sad?
Shen Shuyi thought about it for a long time, and even though she was unwilling to admit it, she found that she cared more than she thought.
If Xie Jingchi died, she would definitely kill all those who killed him!
People like him should live a miserable and ostentatious life all their lives.
Shen Shuyi chuckled, got up and went back to the study to write him a reply.
She told him that she missed him very much and asked him to be careful, take good care of his injuries and not be impulsive and reckless again.
She also told him that Mr. Liancheng had already set out and would arrive soon to detoxify the soldiers.
In the end, Shen Shuyi said that if he died, she would definitely avenge him and seek justice.
